Seedy Saturday is part of a national program endorsed by Seeds of Diversity, a volunteer organization that conserves the biodiversity and traditional knowledge of food crops and garden plants, and raises awareness about gardening and the importance of saving older seed varieties.

The event is hosted by Bloomers and Britches, Pickering Museum Village's heritage gardeners, who research, plan, plant, and maintain the historically accurate gardens of the museum village.

Admission to Seedy Saturday is $3. For more information on Seedy Saturday, or to join Bloomers and Britches, call 905-683-8401 or visit www.pickering.ca/museum.
